Evaluation of MODIS land surface temperature data to estimate air temperature in different ecosystems over Africa

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the possibility of retrieving high-resolution near surface air temperature (Ta) data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Ts products over different ecosystems in Africa.

Crop yield sensitivity of global major agricultural countries to droughts and the projected changes in the future.

TL;DR: This study investigates the likelihood of yield loss of wheat, maize, rice and soybeans in response to droughts of various intensities in the 10 largest producing countries and highlights the non-linear response ofield loss risk to the increase in drought severity.

Global Gridded Crop Model evaluation: benchmarking, skills, deficiencies and implications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the simulation results of 14 global gridded crop modeling groups that have contributed historic crop yield simulations for maize, wheat, rice and soybean to the Global Gridded Crop Model Intercomparison (GGCMI) of the AgMIP.

Winter wheat yield forecasting in Ukraine based on Earth observation, meteorological data and biophysical models

TL;DR: It is concluded that performance of empirical NDVI-based regression model was similar to meteorological and CGMS models when producing winter wheat yield forecasts at oblast level in Ukraine 2–3 months prior to harvest, while providing minimum requirements to input datasets.

Potential performances of remotely sensed LAI assimilation in WOFOST model based on an OSS experiment

TL;DR: In this article, an Observing System Simulation Experiment (OSSE) has been defined to assess the potentialities of assimilating winter wheat leaf area index (LAI) estimations derived from remote sensing into the crop growth model WOFOST.

WOFOST: a simulation model of crop production.

TL;DR: The WOFOST simulation model as mentioned in this paper is a tool for analysing the growth and production of field crops under a wide range of weather and soil conditions, such an analysis is important first to assess to what extent crop production is limited by the factors of light, moisture and macro-nutrients, and second to estimate what improvements are possible.

Scaling-up crop models for climate variability applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study of soybean in the state of Georgia in the USA illustrates several crop model scaling approaches, including sampling input variability in geographic or probability space, and calibration of model inputs or outputs.

Design and optimisation of a large-area process-based model for annual crops

TL;DR: In this article, a new process-based crop model, the general large area model (GLAM) for annual crops, is presented, which is designed to operate on spatial scales commensurate with those of global and regional climate models.
